Nikhil Chinapa asked Vivek Agnihotri about the status of his film The Kashmir Files in relation to the upcoming Oscars on Twitter. On Tuesday, the filmmaker posted a poster of the film labelled with the title 'Official Contender From India'. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) had recently revealed a list of 301 films which were eligible for the Oscars this year, with a few Indian films included. Out of these, four Indian films were officially shortlisted and are in the running in their respective categories - RRR, Last Film Show (Chhello Show), All That Breathes and The Elephant Whisperers.

Others also expressed their doubts about Vivek Agnihotri celebration of being on the eligibility list. "What is the distinction between being an 'official contender' and an 'official entry'?," questioned one person. Another commented, "Why is 'contender' in small print and 'Oscars' in large letters? Are you trying to make people think it made it to the shortlist when it hasn't?" A third asked, "Is being a contender really something to be proud of?"
